Family Ties

When I was a young child I remember wanting to touch my mother's collection of antique glass bowls and other glorious treasures placed in her elegant cabinet. She would explain which family members had previous owned the items, creating a link to past generations. Now I am the matriarch of our extended family. I find myself placing these same items in my grandson's hands and sharing what I know about the people who came before us. I almost feel my mother's presence at those times.
